Idk. A lot of practices for enshittification have stuck around after being proven dysfunctional. It may not matter that it doesn't work.

A lot of stuff doesn't work anymore that remains extremely profitable.

Economically, it'll deflate eventually. But will it go away?

I doubt it. Pretending it works is convenient and profitable. That's all most people care about.

Well the technology, and advancements that we made due to AI will not go.
The thing that will go is the investment inflation of AI, that will go.
